Grab something to write with and something to write on! We are going to get interactive! In this episode, I will share my favorite back to school project: Invention Smash Up. I love this project because it really brings out ideation with students and allows for teaching the design process.

I take my students on a journey through thought. It blows their mind when I show them how to create thoughts and ideas with forced connections. I may or may not say that I have control of their mind. I use my favorite process poster to move students through the Engineering Design Process and consistently use it throughout the rest of the school year!

Recently, I attended the US Patent Office's Summer Teacher STEM Institute and went through the process of design and patenting, myself! This was an amazing conference! Check it out! Keep listening for more of my favorite projects coming in this school year! Ready to change your classroom into project-based learning classroom? Grab the guide with 9 tips!
